According to a paragraph within the Salford Advertiser. Alker has turned down a 2 year deal else where in Super League and agreed to become the new assistant coach.
If true, I for one will be very happy as Malc is a true Salford Legend and deserves to see us into our new stadium.

If true, then that is a cracking signing for next season ![CLAP eusa_clap.gif](images/smilies//eusa_clap.gif)

| Bad move IMHO.
I would have preferred him to go.
We need a complete new start at the club when we move in to the stadium.
We should be looking forward not back.

Why so disrespectful to somebody who has given his everything to this club? He would of gained more international honours if he didnt stay so loyal to the reds. Words fail me.

| I agree with Prestwich Red.
He should have been let go.
He has given blood for the cause and he deserves all the accolades he receives.
However,like everybody eventually,his time is up as a player and it is time both parties moved on.

| Bad move imo the current coach isnt the greatest as it is and bringing in an unexperienced #2 is not going to make things any better (especially a defensive orientated one), I would have preffered to see someone whose been in the role a little longer as said before Alan Hunt maybe given a chance.
So what Alker has been a great servant to the club and I applaud him for that, in football for example how many ex utd players have you seen coaching at the club? a handful if that, good long serving club players are not always the best option, as much as I hate to speak of the legend himself look what would have happened if Robbo would have been made coach at Man U, his current record speaks for itself!

I am not the only one who thinks this is a bad move,why do you think others agree it is a bad move .for the love of all that is real ,see him for what he is ,not this romantic notion he is an amazing player and great all round guy ![BEAT icon_beat.gif](images/smilies//icon_beat.gif)

| What is it you have against him then san? Is it hearsay and gossip
I'm not romanticized about him but I do believe he has gave
more to this club than anybody in the past 12 yrs
but don't let my opinion stop you from your anti alker crusade

| The thing is every single time Malcolm Alker has pulled on that
saford jersey he has given everything he has,he hs represented
every single salford spectator with his passion, tenacity and never say die
attitude we have cut our cloth accordingly throughout the years
And I feel happy and proud to say I have watched alker every single
season since he singed and not once has he given up. Think what You
want but These are my feelings about alker the player not
Alker the man. He deserved to lead us out at the New stad
ium but this isn't going to happen now so at least he will be
around to see the long awaited dream realised. Ps check out superleague
men of steel on skysports web its a cracking testimony. Anyhow I'm off
To light my alker shrine; )

| I think the question is over Malc's ability as a coach
No-one can doubt his committment to Salford over the years the man's a marvel
But you have to ask, having spent all his professional life at Salford, what coaches has he worked under that he could have been learning from? Andy Greg, John Harvey, Steve McCormack, Karl Harrison, Sean Macrae.
I hope I'm wrong and I hope it works out well, but I do wonder!

| I am undecided about him as a coach as you can only base it on results. You do wonder though what his influence in the dressing room will be when SM is still in charge, surely Alker and the current coach don't really see eye to eye after what happened in Florida and then his removal as club captain.
I do think that Alan Hunte will be thinking what have I got to do to get the full assistants role. I personally think he'd do a better job as a coach than SM but he runs the risk of the club moving to the new stadium at around the time that Mcreas contract comes to an end and the clubs desire to get a marque coach from Australia.

| Recipe for disaster imo. Unpopular head coach with fans favourite as his number two. How long til the first Mcrae Out/Alker in thread?
